Answer with explanation:

Two triangles can be similar in following way

1. S AS=Side Angle Side proportionality

2. A A or A A A= Angle Angle Angle Similarity

3. SSS = Side Side Side Proportionality

To prove⇒ Δ Z Y V ~ Δ X W V

∠ Z V Y= ∠ W V X→→→Vertically opposite angles

So, any of other two angles that is

∠Y ≅ ∠W and ∠Z≅∠X , if they are equal or congruent then the two triangles can be proven Similar by AA or AAA called Angle Angle or Angle- Angle- Angle Similarity.

Option D

∠Y ≅ ∠W and ∠Z≅∠X
